The Music Man is written and composed by Mason City's Meredith Wilson. Most Iowans are familiar with this story of fast-talking traveling salesman Harold Hill, who cons the people of River City, Iowa, into buying instruments and uniforms for a boys' band he vows to organize - this despite the fact he doesn't know a trombone from a treble clef. Full of humor and memorable songs like "76 Trombones" and "Ya Got Trouble" and reluctant romance with a happy ending, this show is a "must see" for hometown folks. In 1957, the show became a hit on Broadway, winning five Tony Awards, including Best Musical (beating out West Side Story), and running for 1,375 performances. The cast album won the first Grammy Award for "Best Original Cast Album". The shows success led to revivals and a popular 1962 film adaptation and a 2003 television remake.

Cedar Falls award-winning illustrator Gary Kelley's images of this classic American tale are the inspiration for the visuals in this October production. Ichabod Crane, a superstitious schoolmaster in love with a wealthy farmer's daughter has a terrifying encounter with a headless horseman in a production offering delightful characters, song and laughter as well. Posing the question "Could Ichabod's romantic rival for Katrina's hand really be the headless horseman?," this show is a perfect compliment to the Halloween season.

"...an exceptional blending of mystery, suspense, and humor." San Diego Playbill
"No autumn is complete without the telling of this classic" The National Theatre-Washington D.C

Robert Fulghum, the author of "All I Really Need to Know I learned in Kindergarten", has crafted this engaging holiday show of storytelling and song with adaptations by Ernest Zulia and David Caldwell. It takes a funny, heartwarming and often poignant look at the struggle to find the spirit of the holidays amid the avalanche of commercialism, stress and chaos that crashes down every December. From the child trick or treating in a Santa mask just before Christmas to musings about poinsettias that hang on long after the holidays have ended, this show rekindles the true spirit of the holidays in everyone, even those with a severe case of "Scroogitis."

"...beautiful, deeply moving tribute to the winter solstice..." -Dramatic Publishing
"One minute you will find a tear in your eye and the next you will be laughing out loud!" -Broadwayworld.com

"Robert Fulghum's stories withstand the test of time.  He is the Will Rogers or Mark Twain of our day." -Good Morning America

The master of sitcom, Neil Simon, was inspired by two venerable vaudeville teams to come up with this hilarious portrayal of a one-time vaudevillian pair known as "Lewis and Clark" who, over the course of forty-odd years grew to hate each other. Now CBS wants to reunite them for a special history of comedy with them representing the vaudeville era. The laughs come from the efforts of Clark's nephew to get them together and from the shenanigans on the actual broadcast. This is Neil Simon at his funniest and "one-liner" best.

"It's ham on wry...Simon's sure footed craftsmanship and his one liners are as exquisitely apt as ever." New York Post

"Another hit for Simon in a shrewdly balanced, splendid and rather touching slice of the show biz life." New York Daily News
